In this paper the two-dimensional problem is solved for the magnetosphere of a relativistic compact star. The direct and reverse currents in the magnetotail are calculated, as well as the force exerted by the magnetic field on the edge of the current layer. The dependence of the solution on the parameters of the model is investigated.
